A pair of smaller side shelves with scroll-cut brackets flank the central structure at mid-height, while a lower square shelf provides a third display level. Between the mid and lower shelves, an interlaced teardrop and loop pierced fretwork panel serves as the decorative focal point of the piece, its fluid lines reflecting the organic ornamental language of the Arts & Crafts movement. The two-plank top shows a hairline split along the join, consistent with age. See less
